(A) It is recognized that, generally, provision must be made for vehicular access to private property from streets and alleys, but in so doing due consideration must be given to pedestrian and vehicle safety, the resulting interference with the movement of vehicular traffic, and interference with public improvements. In establishing permissible curb cuts and sidewalk driveway crossing for access to private property, it shall be the policy of the city not to authorize the same where they are unnecessary or where they would unreasonably interfere with the rights of the public in the adjacent street or alley, and in no event shall any such cut or crossing be of greater width than necessary for reasonable access to the private property to be served thereby.
(B) It is also recognized that curb cuts to permit street parking are desirable in many locations, but in passing on applications for permits for such curb cuts, due consideration shall be given to any resulting interference with safe and free movement of vehicular traffic; and it shall be the policy of the city not to authorize curb cuts for such purpose when they would unreasonably interfere with vehicular traffic.
